Description
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) offers reimbursement grants of $125 per family to help offset child care expenses for registered participants of AMS Sectional Meetings. The goal is to enable parents to participate more fully in these meetings by reducing the burden of child care costs, whether incurred at home or on-site. The AMS does not provide or recommend child care services; recipients are responsible for making their own arrangements. Grants are distributed before the meeting upon submission of required documentation.
